Thank you for a great course! Looking forward to applying everything that I have learned! I wish it was a longer course? More topics maybe? I like everything that I have learned and I have been finding that it is very useful!

Herky is amazing!! I'm so grateful that I had him for 3 courses and especially for my very last Life Strategies course!!!

You can tell that Herky is seriously knowledgeable and experienced in the classes he teaches. He is also very responsive and uses lots of humour and fun!!!

Thanks guys for a great learning experience in this program. I thought I was going to hate this course, but it ended up being one of my favourites. Very, very great experience - thanks to all!

Herky is awesome. Respectful, kind, knowledgeable. Really enjoy learning from him. He's a keeper!

The content of the course can really help improve skills for experienced practitioners and for those just starting out in career counselling

_________________________________________________________________________

Great materials, tips and most of all, awesome teacher!

Jayne was a great instructor -- I found her comments and questions to be insightful and helpful.

_________________________________________________________________________

I was kind of thrown into case management without the training two years ago. If my peers are working the same way this is a good course for them to ground themselves into case management standards.

_________________________________________________________________________

I liked the pace of this course [Job Developer], and some of the feedback from other students was insightful and relevant, and I came away with some good tips. I also liked most of the "tip sheets" and found some useful content. The assignments encouraged creative thinking, which made them interesting to do. I appreciated that the textbook readings were short and to the point, though for me much of the content was very general and didn't add much to my learning (I have worked in this field for a number of years - I think someone brand new to the field would have gotten more out of the course in general). The "theories" section of the course was the part that for me really stood out as needing an overhaul - there were way too many theories presented far too briefly, and so then to ask us to apply these theories seemed an exercise doomed to be superficial. I'd recommend a quality over quantity approach and pare down the list of theories to just a handful of the most significant. If I were to suggest an addition, I'd like to have seen a section on trends in resumes and cover letters, since this is a practical part of the job that I deal with everyday (far more often than some of the other topics covered).

Unlike many online programs I have taken or enrolled in, the website is very user friendly, instructors are supportive and reachable, always offering reflective and constructive feedback. I learned to write a lot of tip sheets in this courses.

_________________________________________________________________________

Kristine was amazing, accommodating and understanding. She is a great asset to your team.

I learned a great deal of information. We have to take this course and I think its a great place to take it. I like that it can be done in 2 weeks via distance as we live in a remote, isolated community.

_________________________________________________________________________

This course was well worth the time and energy required to complete. I will put more time into learning all there is to learn, which is tremendous. 

_________________________________________________________________________

The assignments definitely helped me put my learning into context. I appreciated having the opportunity to apply the theories and models to my own life and career path.

Kristine is an excellent instructor! Always appreciative of her feedback and her active engagement and participation within the discussion forums.

It provided an excellent background to the world of case management, and I can definitely say it helped provide context and clarity around the role of a case manager.

This course was an amazing overall experience, it supported and facilitated my learning and allowed me to learn the fundamental Career Development Foundations, Emerging Theories and Models. I was very impressed with the ease and flow of the course and would definitely recommend it to any Career Counselor seeking to broaden their knowledge.

I learned so much about the topic and the resources and instructor were both excellent.

_________________________________________________________________________

Quick timeline to complete course. Like the online aspect.

The course is relevant and useful. I found the need assessment, program design and evaluation components the most beneficial.

I had an excellent experience and would take more online courses.

_________________________________________________________________________

I have learned many new knowledge regarding code of ethics. It is helpful both personally and professionally.

Good material, helpful.

_________________________________________________________________________

Throughout our so busy lives, we forget about recharging ourselves, or sometimes, our old resiliency tools become less effective, not working properly for the stage in life we are in.

_________________________________________________________________________

really informative actually

_________________________________________________________________________

Thank you. I enjoyed the course and found it valuable!

Over all great experience!

Excellent course, grad level expectations, great pace, content and instruction.

_________________________________________________________________________

It was worth it as I felt I learned a lot.

I think all the Employment Counsellors working for the same organization should all have the same training as it is so relevant to the work that we are presently doing.

It was an excellent, challenging program and I am proud I finished the program as I gained knowledge and skills that will help me with my everyday work.

_________________________________________________________________________

It should be given to all new staff if they are working in Career and Employment.

_________________________________________________________________________

I really enjoyed the course and found it informative.

_________________________________________________________________________

I would recommend the course because I found the information and learning material very relevant.  I would tell a friend or colleague the course if beneficial but very demanding and time consuming.

_________________________________________________________________________

Excellent teacher, available a great deal of the time, answered within a day. The assistant was equally helpful and available and knowledgeable. Excellent excellent course. Thank you for developing it. Most thorough and indepth online course I have taken. I appreciate being held accountable to participation, deadlines, and the need to learn and get 80% to pass. This is the first online course in which I have had those aspects, and I really appreciate it because I don't feel like I wasted my time. I feel like I grew, which is really important for me.

_________________________________________________________________________

Very good course to help deepen understanding of statistical concepts of assessment tools.

_________________________________________________________________________

It can be very convenient as it's online; many great resources offered; can connect with the instructor.

Discussions offered a way for me to learn more about my colleagues that I interact with because we're near by but also those further away that I've never met.

_________________________________________________________________________

You gain so much knowledge about the field and new ways to deal with challenges.

_________________________________________________________________________

Intense training on what is required to perform this role effectively. This course is structured very well to propagate thought toward better practices and procedures.

You learn so much, such a valuable tool and certification.

Jayne's feedback was precisely what I needed to stay on track and re-affirmed what I already had knowledge of. Also, it built professional confidence to have gentle redirection when I wasn't quite spot on and had me open my mind to new ways of thinking.
